Hi i have a list of many files and want to load them into a list of tables, that can be adressed with a variable 'i'. something like files = c("0125um","2000um","2200um","2500um","2700um") for (i in 1:5) { fp[i] <- read.table( files[i] ) } but this does not work of course. Has anyone a good hint? Thank you, -- Jonas Stein <news at jonasstein.de>
